Here Kerth Gumbs serves fresh briny oysters with a rich Le Gruyère AOP cheese sauce. The sauce is made by whisking clarified butter into egg yolks, for a super rich and creamy topping.
Whisk together the egg yolks, water and vinegar over a bain Marie until the mixture starts to thicken, about 3 minutes
Remove from the heat and slowly whisk in the clarified butter. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon
Add the remaining ingredients, and stir to combine. Adjust seasoning to taste
To serve, shuck the oysters and spoon some of the sauce on top along with a generous grating of Gruyère
Place under a hot grill for 2 minutes until golden
